Reigning world no.1 Dennis Orcollo looks to start his year on a bright note when he takes on a bevy of the country’s best cue artists in the initial leg of the 2009 Senator Manny Villar Cup set from February 20 to 22 in Baguio City.
The Villar Cup Panagbenga leg will be held in SM City Baguio, part of the city's month-long flower festival which is expected to be visited by over a million tourists.
After that, the series, shifts Quezon province (Lucena City) in March and Batangas (Lipa City) in April.
"I just hope I could continue my good run this year," said Orcollo, who ruled the Quezon City 9-Ball Championship, the All-Japan Open, the Qatar International 9-Ball Open and the Guinness Tour Guangzhou leg last year.
Following the National Open in May, the Villar Cup will fly to Davao City for the Kadayawan leg in August before it travels to Palawan in September.
Also in the hunt are Ronnie Alcano, Alex Pagulayan, Django Bustamante and Gandy Valle.
Other notable players appearing in the event are pool maestro Efren "Bata" Reyes, Lee Van Corteza, and former leg winners Warren Kiamco (Alabang), Ramil Gallego (Bulacan), Roberto Gomez (Davao) and Rodolfo Luat (Bacolod).
